film and television courses
Mon, 29 Aug 2005, 03:09 pmHi,
I live in Perth, W.A and am wishing to study a course in Film and Television next year, in the production side of things. Initially I thought i would do a postgraduate in film and television at Curtin University as I completed a teaching degree there nine years ago. However I have since heard, from a person working as a production assistant for a documentary company in Fremantle, that a TAFE course would be much more useful and hands on (less theoretical) and is very well accepted by the industry. If this is the case it would be a lot better financially too for me! I was just wondering if anyone had any advice about this. Do you agree with what she said or think otherwise? If i want to get into production/editing and don't want to have to go back to study for that long, what are my best options? I have no previous experience, only in theatre.
Applications for TAFE close september 30, so I would really appreciate a fast response!!!,
Thanks!
Laura
